Too bad he won’t be buried at York. That’s politics for you

That's the kicker, isn't it? With all the good intentions of the mass and feast, they should have buried him in the same place as would have happened in the 15th c. In a Yorkish cemetery or catacomb.

Do they have catacombs in the UK? Not the burial plots of royalty under the church but real Romanesque catacombs?

If he had died naturally, he would have been buried in Westminster Abby where his Queen was interred. It's possible he wanted his family buried in York but not definitive.
